Walking in the rain, I placed my right hand in my blazer to find warmth, my left grasped the hat that shielded my head to keep it from falling as I looked up towards the skyscraper building. Cars passed but none stopped. Perhaps I did not look like a lost child, trying to find my way home. My heart was heavy with regret. Though I had left, the damage it had done to me was great. More importantly what it did to her. Curious stares came and went, but none offered to shelter me to a building. Perhaps my heavy heart could be felt. The tapping sound my shoes made with each step slowed and it seemed as though it too felt the sadness within.
Wishing that the sun will shine, I continued my walk to the subway. A soft whimper was made under the heavy pelts of rain. I made my way to the source. A puppy, it was strange to find one in the streets. I extended my hand, only to have the puppy shrink back in fear, turning my palm, it took a slight sniff and cautiously made it's way towards my legs. Taking off my blazer, I picked it up and wrapped the puppy to give it warmth. "So you're lost too eh.." I whispered to it as it licked me hands in gratitude.
I covered my companions head slightly with my hat, continuing our walk, I looked at it straight in the eye and said, "Let's find our way back together"
